Question

I have 2 reasonably simple queries that i need to make one. Im just having a mental blank today.

SELECT max(StatusReportID) 
  FROM dbo_VehicleStatusReport

and

SELECT StatusReportID, StatusReportTime, CarNumber, VehicleID, 
       DriverNumber, DriverID, VehicleStatus, LocationX, LocationY, 
       Speed, Direction, InvalidGPS 
  FROM dbo_VehicleStatusReport 
 WHERE StatusReportID > " & MaxStatusReportID2 & "

where & MaxStatusReportID2 & is the result from the first query minus 3000 (-3000)

Answer 1

just wrap it on a subquery,

SELECT StatusReportID, 
       StatusReportTime, 
       CarNumber, 
       VehicleID, 
       DriverNumber, 
       DriverID, 
       VehicleStatus, 
       LocationX, 
       LocationY, 
       Speed, 
       Direction, 
       InvalidGPS 
FROM   dbo_VehicleStatusReport 
WHERE  StatusReportID > 
       ((SELECT max(StatusReportID) FROM dbo_VehicleStatusReport) - 3000)
